This book explores Chinese novelists' distinctive contributions to
the China debate in terms of the key issues of Chinese language,
power dynamics and Confucian tradition. As China is rising, Chinese
scholars and policymakers are debating heatedly over China's past,
present and future. Who are the major debaters? How do they analyze
China's problems and figure out solutions? What are the main
achievements and weaknesses of the Chinese intellectual debate and
discourse? Chinese novelists also get involved in the China debate.
However, their voices are rarely heard. This book argues that, by
dramatizing the diversities of ordinary social actors' everyday
languages, active discursive practices and enchanted local
traditions, Chinese novelists do not merely illustrate the dominant
liberal, the New Left and the New Confucian ideologies, but enrich
the China debate and provide a "novel" approach to our
understanding of modern China.
